拍品描述
A WALRUS TUSK NETSUKE OF A BUNDLE OF CLAMS WITH PRUNUS BRANCH Japan, 19 th century Well carved as a bundle of clam shells wrapped in straw and tied at the top together with a flowering prunus branch, along with a plaque inscribed Narihira. The reverse with two himotoshi. HEIGHT 5.1 cm Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, natural imperfections to the material, and traces of use. Provenance: From an important private collection in East Germany, mostly assembled during the 1970s and 1980s. The inscription refers to Ariwara no Narihira (825-880), a famous Japanese waka poet and aristocrat of the early Heian period. Narihiras many renowned love affairs have exerted a profound influence on later Japanese culture. Legends have held that he had affairs with the high priestess of the Ise Grand Shrine and the poet Ono no Komachi, and that he fathered Emperor Yozei. His love affairs inspired The Tales of Ise (Ise monogatari) and he has ever since been a model of the handsome, amorous nobleman. The netsuke alludes to the romantic dedication of the protagonist of this collection of waka poems, an unnamed courtier but traditionally identified as Ariwara Narihira, giving a branch of prunus to his beloved. The clam shells represent chastity and the shell matching game (kai-awase), serving as symbols of fidelity and conjugal union.
